| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 3, 2007 12 oz. bottle. Very nice, sweet smell of milk chocolate with hints of coffee and raspberries and a slight hops bitterness. A pronounced, overwhelming yeast aroma emerges as one continues to sip. Pours a near black color of moderate opacity with a bright orange hue and an ordinary amount of short lasting, dark tan head; nice lacing. The primary flavor is coffee bitterness, which is surprising given the sweet aroma. Simplistic but nice. Long, very bitter coffee aftertaste. Light body. Smooth, as one would expect from an oatmeal stout. The beer looks and smells better than it tastes, but it nonetheless is enjoyable. sliffy (1983), Columbus, Ohio, USA

A little mocha in the aroma but definantly not what I expected. Flavor is the same. Finishes strong with a bitter lingering aftertaste. f351c4v (405), Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, USA

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jan 13, 2007 Bottle... Pitch black pour with a large, rocky, beige head. Excellent retention. The nose is of hot cocoa, milk chocolate, light cinnamon and vanilla. Oxidized flavor. Perfect balance, but lots of cardboard and cocoa powder. Light to medium-bodied with a milky mouthfeel and subtle carbonation. Lengthy, bland, lightly bitter finish. animal8788 (32), Austin, Texas, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 10/20 | Jan 13, 2007 Pours black with a little brown head. The nose is a little malty and sweet. The palate is smooth, but a little too carbonated. Tastes malty and chocolatey, a little coffee. "Good flavor," - Brad. fiulijn (7150), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 11, 2007 Dark brown to black color. The aroma is light, coffeish. Medium body, with a flavor based on carmel and roasted malt, but quite well mixed. Pleasant Stout. dwyerpg (2537), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jan 10, 2007 Looks pretty good. Taste is okay, but is actually a little bit sour. Not too thick or thin, just a little disappointing.
